Question: 1 / 400

What should you NOT give to someone suffering from heat exhaustion?

Cool water

Sports drinks

Alcohol

Alcohol should not be given to someone suffering from heat exhaustion because it can further dehydrate the body and worsen the symptoms. It is important to provide cool water or a cool compress to help regulate body temperature and replenish lost fluids. While sports drinks may contain electrolytes, they are not as effective as plain water in treating heat exhaustion.
